need to build artifical seawalls :picard:
If I remember correctly, Japan had some really well made sea walls as a measure against tsunamis. That shyt was easily overcome by the one in 2011. Their solution was just to build them bigger lol.

But tsunamis are dangerous not because of the height but because of the huge mass of water is behind them. I'm not even sure if humans can realistic stop that kind of power. At most, maybe mitigate the impact to a certain extent.

Hopefully everyone is ok

But I mean....

There's enough data going back 100-200 years to know which areas in the world have more of a chance of getting natural disasters. Why live in those places outside of just vacationing?

Got the alert for San Diego as well

There are a couple cruise ships visible as well. How nerve tracking would that be? Next thing you know ;

Things like this really puts into perspective how wild living on earth is. Other planets be smelling like rotten eggs and be having violent electrical storms nshyt.

Why are we here and what is the fukkin purpose?:wow:

Wild as fuk right?

Been teaching my kids about planets and when we get to Jupiter I'm telling them about the great red spot and it's just insane to me that a storm of almost 300mph winds several times larger than the earth has been continuously raging for at least 300 years.
